Glad I found this place. I just recently bought a '76 Pontiac Ventura with an Olds 350 in it. The guy I bought it off of said the motor was a '69 and he seemed to be a rather trustworthy according to everyone else thats dealt with him so I beleived him. I then found this site and decided to run the numbers. I looked at the block number and was happy with what I found until I looked at the heads, big ol #8 on them, crap. Oh well I'm just happy it aint a cheby lol!

Well I got some reading up to do, and I'll be honest, I dont know much about Olds motors. I've been Ford guy since I was little but I have always liked the non cheby GM motors for some reason lol!

 

welcome to the site. You will find a bunch of good guys here.

 

Thanks! I might have some pics I could post up if I can find them.

Just outta curiosity how many of you Ohioans are from or near the Akron area? This place seems to have the most Ohioans out of all the other car sites I go to.

 

I'm in Bainbridge Township.
About 45 minutes to Summit from here.

 

I'm about 5min away from Summit.

 

Welcome from Columbus

 

I grew up in Columbus (the westside) up until 96 and then I moved to sunny Florida. Sometimes I miss cow town real bad. Thank God I'll always be a BUCKEYE!!

 

I am up by Chardon. Snow capital of the state. I hate snow by the way.

 

I am from a small town just south of Canton that no one has ever heard of but I am in San Diego right now until I retire.

 

I hear you on that one, I cant stand winter.

 

I don't mind winter, it's the cold and snow I dont like.
Took the Vista Cruiser out today and Vista cruised around a little.
I know better and won't take down my driveway markers or put my snowblower away yet.


The F-1 season starts tomorrow morning at 1:30, spring has sprung.
Should you drink coffee or beer watching it? Champagne would probably be more appropriate.

 

WELCOME, glad you found us.
